Pretreatment of cellulosic biomass is necessary before enzymatic saccharification and fermentation. Extrusion is a well established process in food industries and it can be used as a physicochemical treatment method for cellulosic biomass. Aqueous ammonia soaking treatment at mild temperatures ranging from 60 to $80^{\circ}C$ for longer reaction times has been used to preserve most of the cellulose and hemicellulose in the biomass. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of extrusion treatment on aqueous ammonia soaking method. Extrusion was performed with miscanthus sample conditioned to 2mm of particle size and 20% of moisture content at $200^{\circ}C$ of barrel temperature and 175rpm of screw speed. And then aqueous ammonia soaking was performed with 15%(w/w) ammonia solution at $60^{\circ}C$ for 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 hours on the extruded and raw miscanthus samples respectively. In the combined extrusion-soaking treatment, most compositions removal occurred within 1~2 hours and on a basis of 1 hour soaking treatment values, cellulose was recovered about 85% and other compositions, including hemicellulose, are removed about 50% from extruded miscanthus sample. The combined extrusion-soaking treated and soaking only treated samples were subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis using cellulase and ${\beta}$-glucosidase. The enzymatic digestibility value of combined extrusion-2 hours soaking treated sample was comparable to 12 hours soaking only treated sample. It means that extrusion treatment can shorten the conventional long reaction time of aqueous ammonia soaking. The findings suggest that the combination of extrusion and soaking is a promising pretreatment method to solve both problems for no lignin removal of extrusion and long reaction time of aqueous ammonia soaking.

Pretreatment of cellulosic biomass is necessary before enzymatic saccharification and fermentation. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of combined aqueous ammonia-dilute sulfuric acid treatment on cellulosic biomass. Miscanthus was pretreated using aqueous ammonia and dilute sulfuric acid solution under high temperature and pressure conditions to be converted into bioethanol. Aqueous ammonia treatment was performed with 15 %(w/w) ammonia solution at $150^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 20 minutes of reaction time. And then, dilute sulfuric acid treatment was performed with 1.0 %(w/w) sulfuric acid solution at $150^{\circ}C$ of reaction temperature and 10 minutes of reaction time. The compositional variations of this combined aqueous ammonia-dilute sulfuric acid treatment resulted in 68.0 % of cellulose recovery and 95.7 % of hemicellulose, 81.3 % of lignin, 89.1 % of ash removal respectively. The enzymatic digestibility of 90.5 % was recorded in the combined pretreated Miscanthus sample and it was 14.7 times higher than the untreated sample. The ethanol yield in the Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation was 90.4 % of maximum theoretical yield based on cellulose content of the combined pretreated sample and it was about 98 % compared to the ${\alpha}$-cellulose ethanol yield.

A method was developed to detect total mutagenicity of fried fish for S. typhimurium TA98, using Ames assay. Method described herein circumvented problems associated with the sample preparation for Ames assay, i.e., a multi-purification step of sample and interference with solvent residuals. Experiment A, the best method developed in the present study, consisted of two important steps: pH adjustment of the aqueous sample solution from fried fish samples to remove impurities, and simultaneous distillation extraction (SDE) for partially purified samples to remove volatile compounds from solvents. The procedure and results were described as below. Fillet of gizzard shad (Konosirus punctatus) fish sample fried for 10 min each side on the temperature-controlled fry-pan (210$\circ$C) was homogenized in an aqueous acidic solution (pH 2) with a homogenizer, followed by filtration through Celite. The tiltrate (pH 2), removed some impurities by extraction with chloroform:methanol (2:1, v/v) mixture, was adjusted pH to 10 and then centrifuged to remove precipitate. The ethylacetate extract from the tiltrate of pH 10 was rotoevaporated and purified by SDE apparatus for 2 hours. Experiment A revealed significantly higher revertants (1928 per 25 g fried sample) than other Experiment (B, C, or D) tested. Experiment A gave good results in the mutagenicity test of fried fish sample with few purification steps using only 25 g fried sample and 650 ml of solvents; and thus this method could be a useful tool for the screening the mutagenicity or antimutagenicity of other foods as well.

Hydroxybenzothiophenes, dihydroxy-benzothiophenes, and benzothiophenedione were identified as inter-mediates of benzothiophene (BT) exposed to ultrasonic irradiation. It is proposed that benzothiophene is oxidized by OH radical to sequentially for m hydroxybenzothiophenes, dihydroxybenzothiophenes, and benzothiophenedione. Benzothiophene is decomposed rapidly following pseudo-first-order kinetics in a first-order manner by ultrasonic irradiation in aqueous solution. The toxicity of sonochemically treated solutions was checked by E. coli and a less inhibition in bacterial respiration was observed from the 120-min treated benzothiophene sample than from the untreated benzothiophene sample. Also evolution of carbon dioxide and sulfite was observed during ultrasonic reaction. A pathway for ultrasonic decomposition of benzothiophene in aqueous solution is proposed.

XAD-2 지지체를 이용하여 알코올성 수용액 중에서 벤조산과 그 유도체들의 머무름 거동을 조사하였으며, 또한 분리를 시도하였다. 벤조산과 그 유도체들의 머무름은 첨가한 유기용매의 농도와 종류, 유동상의 pH와 첨가된 $R_4N^+$에 의해 영향을 받았으며 시료 분자내의 치환기 종류와 위치에 의해서도 영향을 받았다. 약산 분자들이 산성 용액에서는 주로 흡착에 의하여 무극성 XAD-2표면에 머무름이 되고 반대이온을 첨가한 경우 염기성 용액에서는 이온쌍 모델을 따라 약산의 전리된 음이온들이 머무르는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과들을 기초로 pH 8.50의 염기성 수용액에서 혼합시료를 분리하였다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant effect of aqueous green tea(AGT) on soybean oil. AGT was freeze-dried and 20% of the freeze-dried aqueous green tea powder (AGTP) was added to soybean oil in the quantities of 0.5%, 1% and 5%. Soybean oil without the addition of AGTP was used as a control. Soybean oil with 0.02% butylated hydroxytoluen(BHT) was used as another experimental sample. Each sample was stored at 6$0^{\circ}C$ for 15 days. The oxidation of these samples was determined by measuring the acid value (AV), peroxide value (POV), and thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value. The result showed that the acid values were lowest in 0.02% BHT, followed by the 0.5% AGTP, 1% AGTP, 5% AGTP and finally the control. When AGTP was added, the peroxide value was lower than both the control and 0.02% BHT. The lowest TBA values were in the 0.5% AGTP followed by 0.02% BHT, 1% AGTP, 5% AGTP and the control, respectively. The 5% AGTP (285 min), 1% AGTP (249 min) and 0.5% AGTP (238) demonstrated longer induction periods, compared to the control (204 min) and the BHT (229 min) by Rancimat method.

A liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the determination of caffeine in forensic aqueous sample. The centrifuged sample ($100{\mu}l$) was diluted 50-fold with distilled water. The diluted sample ($400{\mu}l$) was then diluted further with $200{\mu}l$ of 0.1% formic acid solution and $400{\mu}l$ of acetonitrile containing 500 ng of caffeine-(3-methyl-$^{13}C_3$) prior to LC-MS/MS analysis. The mobile phase was composed of 0.1% formic acid in distilled water (A) and acetonitrile (B). Chromatographic separation was performed by using a Zorbax SB-C18 ($100mm{\times}2.1mm$ i.d., $3.5{\mu}m$) column and caffeine was eluted within 1.1 min. Linear least-squares regression with a 1/x weighting factor was used to generate a calibration curve with the coefficients of determination ($r^2=0.9983$). The lower limit of quantification was $25ng/ml$ for the analyte. The process efficiency was 98.6~100.1%. Intra- and inter-day precisions were not more than 2.1% and 1.7%, while intra- and inter-day accuracies were ranged from -6.8 to 4.5%, respectively. The suitability of the method was examined by analyzing unknown forensic aqueous samples.

The various molecular weight (MW) regenerated silk fibroins were prepared with different dissolution condition and the effect of MW on the gelation behavior of regenerated aqueous silk fibroin (SF) solution was investigated. The result of gelation time measurement indicated that the gelation of SF aqueous solution was accelerated by the increase of MW and SF concentration. When formic acid was added in SF aqueous solution, the gelation time of SFL and SFC30 aqueous solution showed a significant decreaseat 0.03% formic acid addition. In case of the lowest MW sample, SFC180, SF molecules became aggregated and precipitated without gelation after 28 days storage time. These findings indicate that MW control of SF can be utilized to control the gelation time of SF aqueous solution.
